Dispute: An employee at a restaurant reported that she had an argument with three customers. The customers ordered drinks and immediately complained that it did not taste like there was any alcohol in the beverages. The employee told them they could get an extra shot of alcohol for the drinks, but the customers would have to pay for them. The customers became very angry and said they wouldn’t pay for more alcohol. They demanded new drinks for free, and the employee said she could not do that. The customers then stormed out of the restaurant. An officer was unable to locate the customers in the area.
